The Environment Ministry said that there is no waste crisis looming in the horizon for the regions using the Costa Brava landfill, which is expected to reach its capacity mid-2022.
However, the regions that could face a waste crisis are the ones using the Jdeideh landfill. Before the resignation of the cabinet, a proposal was presented to expand the landfill but was rejected. Another proposal was also presented to raise the level of filling to 1.5 meters and was also rejected.
In this context, caretaker Environment Minister Fadi Jreissati visited a number of waste sorting plants, to inspect the operations.
